Around the World in 12 Dishes - Explore Sweden!

We are excited to be taking a journey around the world, (loosely) following in Phileas Fogg's footsteps, by exploring 12 different countries and cooking 12 dishes - one for each country we visit.

The world is such a wonderfully diverse and colorful place. I am so excited to get us a bit out of our comfort zone and explore some more of the world with the Lil Divas. What better way to really bring it all to life for them than through food, books and fun?!

Print your passport: Click here to download, comes with space for a photo of the child with the dish. Here is a little cover for it if you wish

Color a placemat: Once colored/painted or whatever other way you want to do this, you can laminate it or put it between clear contact paper to use it over and over. Great conversation piece for you and your kids. Click here to download it.

Make a craft: you can make a country related craft with the kids [optional!]

Read a book: We read Pippi Longstocking!

Another great book is D…Is For Dala Horse. Glittering Muffins has a review and a worldwide giveawayhere
